Oh, Hillary

Antoine is at La Table

Good Morning, Breakfastpoppers. Today is Monday, March 9th, 2015. Our delightful French friend, Ant Antoine, is beside me at the breakfast table. Antoine is thinking about the latest scandal to hit the Obama administration. Hillary Clinton conducted all her State Department business on her own, unsecured private e-mail account. Please don't blame President Obama for not knowing about this account. He found out when we found out on television. What a guy! Antoine is preparing delicate apple crepes for breakfast this morning. I will be brewing up batches of Cafe au Lait. Won't you join us? We look forward to your arrival.

Not Exactly New News

Thank you for joining me this morning. This past week was notable for yet another scandal involving the Obama Administration. It was revealed in a big way that when Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State she used her own e-mail account instead of a proper account through the State Department. Her actions put our nation in jeopardy and were in direct violation of policy. Of course, if anyone was really paying attention, this private account was well known among her associates. In fact, the public, at least those who were listening, became aware of Clinton's e-mail about two years ago. At that time, a Romanian activist using the name Guccifer hacked into an AOL account of her associate Sidney Blumenthal. The hacker uncovered loads of work e-mails between the two. All were off Clinton's personal account. So this current storm , although important and egregious, isn't new. We can most probably assume that this sudden interest on the part of the Obama Administration into this mess is occurring because anything is better than talking about Iran and Bebe Netanyahu. Politics and the people who play at it are, for the most part, awful.

It Makes a Difference!

Of course, we can expect Clinton to dismiss the story as insignificant. She has offered to release the e-mails. What a thoughtful and gracious offer on Clinton's part. It does beg the question as to exactly which e-mails are going to be released. The malevolent beauty of a private e-mail account not subjected to government scrutiny is that she can erase anything she wants. She announced that she wants the public to see her e-mails. How strange that she set up a private, secret account the minute she assumed the role of Secretary of State. Hillary Clinton's actions put this nation in grave danger. There was enormous potential for classified information to be read by foreign spies, hackers and heads of state. This culture of secrecy permeated the entire State Department during her tenure.There is also the troubling matter of more than $6 billion that went missing under her watch. This money has still not been accounted for. The only explanation thus far is that the State Department misplaced the money. If that's an explanation, then I'm Harry Truman!

Bad Connections

There is also another disturbing aspect to this story. It has been revealed that one secret account wasn't enough for Clinton. She actually had several different private e-mail addresses that all ran off her private server. In 2014 Judicial Watch initiated a lawsuit against the State Department asking for all the e-mails sent between Clinton, and her top aide, Huma-Abedin. They also asked for e-mails between Clinton and the wife of Muslim Brotherhood leader Mohammed Morsi. These e-mails spanned a period of time between 2009 and 2013. Both Clinton and Abedin conducted government business via personal e-mail. It is vitally important that we get these e-mails and lay bare the connection between Hillary Clinton and members of the Brotherhood. Abider's family are all prominent members of the Muslim Brotherhood. It is time to get our collective heads out of the sand.

Let's Get Real!

There is nothing accidental or innocent about any of this. Hillary Clinton deliberately set up these accounts to keep her actions secret from critics, enemies and the government. As I write this, teams of lawyers and spin artists are toiling away trying to make this all disappear. No matter how hard they try, the facts speak for themselves, as does the law. The Federal Records Act requires the preservation of all official records. E-mails are covered by this requirement, and everyone in the State Department was well aware of the protocol. Clinton used private e-mail all the time. During her entire time as Secretary of State her e-mails were in violation of the Federal Records Act. It is time to pay the piper.

I think your idea has merit. In the case of this president, one 4 year term was more than enough. Sadly, an unaware and oblivious electorate gave him another 4 years to really finish us off. By the way, bradmaster just caused you of stealing the danish. He may have a point!

Bradmasters idea along with term limits for Congress would fix many of our current problems.

Broadcaster is the most likely the one stealing the danish, and bear claws, just a second the bear claw icing got on my keyboard.

With the four year presidential election cycle, we can't get more than two focused years by any president, so why don't we get an amendment to change the president to a single six year term. No reelections.

That way we can get a theoretical four year period from the president, and because there would be no reelection, we might even get another year out of the president.

just a thought.

I was thinking how interesting it is that the FBI has a whole department focused on the Cyber World, and any threats that come from it. The NSA has been monitoring the our calls and the Internet probably before we knew they were doing it.

Yet, they apparently don't look inward into their own world. The FBI is supposed to protect the US from threats foreign or domestic. I am not saying that what Hillary Clinton and the IRS chief did with emails is a Threat, but is something that these two agencies should have flagged.

One can only imagine the storage capability held by the NSA so that anything that went on in the Internet might be stored at their computer systems.

Years ago, it was the Nixon Tapes, and maybe today it will be someones emails that break the secrets.

It was interesting that General Benedict Arnold conspired with an English Major to give the British Fort West Point, which was the most strategic place in America. The British were unable to get down the Hudson River without going past it. A big chain was put across the river to prevent travel on it.

Here is the part that is interesting, Benedict Arnold communicated with the British using coded messages that required a cipher to read the message. Low tech today has been replaced with High Tech, but the deed still remains a human attribute.

The good news is that the colonists captured the British Major before the plot could take effect. The bad news is that Benedict Arnold the trusted friend of General George Washington escaped, and lived two more decades in England.

I can only hope that Nicomp wasn't serious about his comment.

For me, I would gladly clip the left and the right wings off, and make the Eagle walk a straight line.

The sad thing is that she'll get away with it, just like she got away with Benghazi.

It seems to me that, like the X-Files, the truth is out there. The archives of NSA, AOL, Department of State, and pretty much any internet service she corresponded with will likely have remnants of one sort or another. Congress and Government will be reluctant and sluggish, and it seems likely that hacker groups will find and publish the truth before the others overcome their inertia to go look.

Of course,you are right, but even so what about people like you and me? It is impossible to sit here and watch the destruction of this nation. Lately, I have been reading about a scenario that seems impossible, but yet it is talked about. What if Obama wants another term? He then can be officially crowned dictator. It is clear to me that today's Dems are socialists and not the Dems of old. There is no other explanation for their ability to approve of all of this blatant unconstitutional and unlawful behavior. Our country has morphed into a strange place. I never thought I would see the day when the American flag was unwelcome on a college campus. The brainwashing of our youth is now in its later stages and almost complete. This is a sad time for America and for anyone who loves this nation.

I cannot think, off hand, of any human being who makes me as sick & disgusted as Hilary Rodham Clinton. She has more fraud & scandal & skeletons in her closet than 10 other Politicians. She's a blatant phony, a fraud, a LIAR, THIEF, elitist, power hungry, thug who has ever constantly INSISTED she is none of the above, with a straight face.

I have thought for quite some time now that she and her Billy boy need to put a lid on it, bow out, disappear...and go play with their grandchild. At least then they may have done something worthwhile. Truthfully, I cannot even look at her or tolerate the sound of her voice.......If she is stupid enough to run, I just hope she is pummeled out of existence. UP+++

Patti - One of the biggest problems is most of the media avoiding these topics like the plague. The low information types rarely if ever watch the news or even read anything about what is going on in the world, and our government know this. Most of what they do know comes from a co-worker or friend, and is usually wrong.

I could call one of my daughters today and she would have no clue what I was talking about. She finds the news to be depressing so she never watches the news. Even if she did watch it would most likely be one of the alphabet networks who never covers a thing that might make this adminsistration look bad.

Instead of nailing her coffin, this latest scandal she is involved in will unfortunately, give her die-hard supporters an extra length of wool to pull over their eyes. She and the administration have racked up an impressive cache of scandals that fizzle out and have no consequences. Someone has big money, perhaps, to call off the dogs? It makes me wonder if that is the truth, and if it is, where is the money coming from? Could it be this muslim brotherhood? Certainly one option.

I am glad Obama has once again not been in the loop to a scandal. What a virtue, eh? Even if that was true, it might be the result of his being too focused on his own dastardly, anti-constitutional, subversive campaign to annihilate the country, than to keep track of Hillary. I am thinking all of the above. I am feeling a bit cranky this afternoon, can you tell?

Well even when they get found guilty of ethics violations nothing happens. .Just ask Charlie Rangel if you don't remember that case. He was forced to stand up in front of a room full of crooks and admit that he was a crook, but he got caught. As far as they were concerned, getting caught was the only thing he did wrong.

And we all sat back and said that was OK. Until we demand that any elected Politician found guilty of ethics violation be immediately removed from office nothing will change.

We are left with the choice of believing that our leaders are either incredibly stupid or incredibly dishonest. Maybe both.

Auh, Pop, you know we have all lost money here and there. I lost 6 dollars in the bottom of my purse, only last week. But, If I had lost 60.

dollars, I would have torn the bottom out of my purse. Let's see, six

billion looks like this, 6,000,000,000.00 That's a lot of zeros. How

in the world can someone misplace 6 billion dollars? The poolman said it best, "nothing will happen over this." Seems like nothing happens

to anyone in this administration. And, the press is fine with it, and obviously more than half America is fine with it. Many do not want to upset the applecart, as they fear they might could lose their federal assistance.

I talked with a lady who had three children by the same man. They were not married as they were waiting for "the right time". She told me she found it hard to believe that the government would not give her more money for her children, as many times the kids only had canned food

for meals. This woman smoked cigarettes like a train.

I had to ask why this man would not marry her. She finally admitted

that she would get less assistance if they ever got married.

That which makes absolutely no sense seems to be accepted as the norm.

God help us!

It seems like the Obama administration can't keep track of emails. It is like the Nixon missing tapes, and the Bill Clinton Oval Office Accounts.

While the NSA is peeking at everything on the Internet, where were they with Hillary's Emails, and those missing IRS emails.

Is the N S A only interests in scrutinizing enemies of the Obama administration?

How many others in the Obama Administration did the same thing as Hillary? Isn't it time for president Obama to write an Executive Order to set the policy on private emails?

The next President has the nearly impossible task of repairing all of this damage. I hope we pick someone who can at least get this repair started and not someone who will just carry on the mission to destroy our country.

But that of course depends on the voters and we already know how well that is working. Many will vote for Hillary because they believe that is a way to get their beloved "Bill" back in the White House.

We have many young voters who could not name the first President of the United States. Yet they get to cast their vote on who will be our next President.

Something is very wrong with this system.

This is all so difficult to accept. We have come to a complete stop in this nation. We have allowed a lawless president to gut our country.

The only problem is we all know that nothing will happen over this. They will cover this up with the help of people in high places, stall the investigation, and just let it fade away like all the other scandals.

We still have seen no progress on Fast & Furious, Lois Learner is enjoying her fat retirement checks and will never see the inside of a prison.

Hillary stands a good chance of being our next President and perhaps even shared in a portion of the missing six billion dollars.

This is now just business as usual in Washington, it is the Washington way. By now almost every apple in the barrel has been touched by the rot. The only fix would be to dump the barrel and start over with all new apples. And we all know that will not happen. I believe we are seeing the beginning of the end of this wonderful country and there is nothing we can do to stop it.
